Morgan Burnett as an early 4th round pick is a surprise. I will be very surprised if he get's out of the 2nd round.

ggippo, I have as much respect for the SEC as anybody and they lead in numbers of guys in the NFL, but the ACC has been 2nd to the SEC in this category the last 5 years.

Morgan Burnett is a very good football player and I am surprised to read that comment from you.

I was just joking hence the lol. But I see many people saying that Burnett may be better suited at FS than Wright and I just don't see it. Burnett looks like a shorter and less fluid Sean Smith. Wright is faster and more physical and at combine was impressive drills with nice footwork and fluid transitions. UF has incredible depth in the secondary and they used Wright for specific roles

We will disagree on this one George. I like Burnett more than Wright.

Re: Final Big Board Top 300

Has the injury to Micah Johnson really leave him undrafted? That kid is a beast and he just did well at his college pro day workout. I would have to imagine he will get drafted somewhere. In fact, I wouldnt be surprised if Miami went after him as a bargain pick for depth and special teams as when healthy, this kid is a beast and always around the football.

I like Micah but his slow 40 and less than stellar showing at the senior bowl dropped him I think.

He didn't play at the Senior Bowl...

But I would have to disagree with the undrafted prediction. I still don't see him getting past round 5.

Did he practice. I seem to remember him having a bad showing somewhere. But then again he would have been injured. I've seen the guy play and he was always a beast on the field.

About the "prediction" its not really a prediction. Based on a list of 300 players I compiled from 5 different sources he is 270

Nah he didn't participate at all.

I love Micah. I think he's ultra talented and will be a steal for whoever gets him, especially a 34 team.

Re: Updated Final Big Board Top 300

George, Micah hurt his knee in the Music City Bowl against Clemson and did not participate in the Senior Bowl.

He went to the combine and ran a 4.99 40, which hurt his stock. He ran a 4.84 at Kentucky Pro Day, but that still is not blazing.

Good football players drop all the time.

There are lots of good football players. This is a very deep draft. Just because he drops on some boards doesnt mean that he isn't a good football player. A more likely explanation is that he just gets lost in the shuffle. To many good players only so many picks
